In fact, the frequent momentary disconnections or large - scale network outages are mostly caused by ARP spoofing. ARP spoofing attacks have become the number - one culprit that disrupts internet cafe operations and a major headache for internet cafe owners and network administrators.
In terms of the ways to affect the smoothness of network connection, ARP spoofing is divided into two types. One is the spoofing of the router's ARP table; the other is the gateway spoofing of the internal network PC.
The principle of the first type of ARP spoofing is - intercepting gateway data. It notifies the router of a series of incorrect internal network MAC addresses and continuously does so at a certain frequency, so that the real address information cannot be saved in the router through update. As a result, all data of the router can only be sent to the incorrect MAC address, causing normal PCs to be unable to receive information. The principle of the second type of ARP spoofing is - forging a gateway. Its principle is to set up a fake gateway, so that the PC deceived by it sends data to the fake gateway instead of going online through the normal router path. To the PC, it is like being unable to access the internet, "the network is disconnected".
Generally speaking, the consequences of ARP spoofing attacks are very serious. In most cases, it will cause large - scale disconnections. Some network administrators don't understand this very well. When a fault occurs, they think there is no problem with the PC, the switch doesn't have the "ability" to disconnect, and the telecom doesn't admit to a broadband fault. And if the first type of ARP spoofing occurs, as long as the router is restarted and the network can be fully restored, then the problem must be with the router. For this reason, broadband routers have taken a lot of "blame".
As manufacturers of internet cafe routers, they have to do a lot of work, both within and outside their duties, to prevent ARP spoofing. First, input the IP - MAC of all PCs into a static table in the broadband router. This is called router IP - MAC binding. Second, strongly advise network administrators to set up static ARP information of the gateway on all internal network PCs. This is called PC IP - MAC binding. Generally, manufacturers require both tasks to be done, which is called IP - MAC two - way binding.
